Answer:

Quantitative experiments show that 4.18 Joules of heat energy are required to raise the temperature of 1g of water by 1°C. Thus, a liter (1000g) of water that increased from 24 to 25°C has absorbed 4.18 J/g°C x 1000g x 1°C or 4180 Joules of energy.

What is one factor that contributes to seasons occurring in Pennsylvania?

JulijaS [17]

B. the tilt of the Earth on it's axis

The moon affects the tides by it's gravitational pull on Earth. So the moon has no affect on the earth's seasons. The distance from earth from the sun only affects the ability of Earth to sustain liquid water because earth is in something scientists like to call the "Goldilocks Zone" This has no affect on the seasons. However, the angle at which the sun's light hit the earth does effect seasonal changes and it's tilt does change.

55 L of a gas at 25oC has its temperature increased to 35oC. What is its new volume?

ladessa [460]

Answer:

Approximately 56.8 liters.

Assumption: this gas is an ideal gas, and this change in temperature is an isobaric process.

Explanation:

Assume that the gas here acts like an ideal gas. Assume that this process is isobaric (in other words, pressure on the gas stays the same.) By Charles's Law, the volume of an ideal gas is proportional to its absolute temperature when its pressure is constant. In other words

$\displaystyle V_2 = V_1\cdot \frac{T_2}{T_1}$ ,

where

$V_2$ is the final volume,
$V_1$ is the initial volume,
$T_2$ is the final temperature in degrees Kelvins.
$T_1$ is the initial temperature in degrees Kelvins.

Convert the temperatures to degrees Kelvins:

$T_1 = \rm 25^{\circ}C = (25 + 273.15)\; K = 298.15\; K$ .

$T_2 = \rm 35^{\circ}C = (35 + 273.15)\; K = 308.15\; K$ .

Apply Charles's Law to find the new volume of this gas:

$\displaystyle V_2 = V_1\cdot \frac{T_2}{T_1} = \rm 55\;L \times \frac{308.15\; K}{298.15\; K} = 56.8\; L$ .

Esterification is what type of reaction?

lyudmila [28]

Esters and Formation of esters. Esters and water are formed when alcohols react with carboxylic acids. This reaction is called esterification, which is a reversible reaction. ... Since esterification is a reversible reaction, esters can undergo hydrolysis to form corresponding alcohol and organic acid.

Consider the reaction. PCl5(g)↽−−⇀PCl3(g)+Cl2(g) K=0.042 The concentrations of the products at equilibrium are [PCl3]=0.18 M and

tatyana61 [14]

Answer: The equilibrium concentration of $PCl_5$ is 1.285 M.

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the decomposition of phosphorus pentachloride follows:

$PCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)$

The expression for equilibrium constant is given as:

$K_c=\frac{[PCl_3][Cl_2]}{[PCl_5]}$

We are given:

$K_c=0.042$

$[PCl_3]=0.18M$

$[Cl_2]=0.30M$

The concentration of solid substances are taken to be 1. Thus, they do not appear in the equilibrium constant expression.

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.042=\frac{0.18\times 0.30}{[PCl_5]}$

$[PCl_5]=1.285$

Hence, the equilibrium concentration of $PCl_5$ is 1.285 M.

if 5430 J of energy is used to heat 1.25 L of room temp. water (23.0 °C) whats the final temp of the water?

skelet666 [1.2K]

We can use the heat equation,
Q = mcΔT

Where Q is the amount of energy transferred (J), m is the mass of the substance (kg), c is the specific heat (J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹) and ΔT is the temperature difference (°C).

Density = mass / volume

The density of water = 0.997 g/mL

Hence mass of 1.25 L (1250 mL) of water = 0.997 g/mL x 1250 mL

= 1246.25 g

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.186 J/ g °C.

Let's assume that there is no heat loss to the surrounding and the final temperature is T.

By applying the equation,

5430 J = 1246.25 g x 4.186 J/ g °C x (T - 23) °C
(T - 23) °C = 5430 J / 1246.25 g x 4.186 J/ g °C
(T - 23) °C = 1.04 °C
T = 1.04 °C + 23 °C
T = 24.04 °C

Hence, the final temperature of the water is 24.04 °C.
